Anton's Anecdotes

Words cannot begin to describe this stunning statue... Imagined by Lisa (who has honored Cernunnos as her patron god for many years), and sculpted by the insanely talented Joe Laudati, this statue may well put a lump in your throat and give you goosebumps.

Individually hand cast by the artist who created this sculpture, each one of these statues is lovingly finished with painstaking attention detail by Joe Laudati himself.

Lord of the forest. God of the Hunters and Hunted. He has a fox laying with a hound to show that he brings peace to all in his domain (the lion lays down with the lamb). A badger at his side brings in his medicine of desire, courage, persistance and leadership. On the base of the log you see the Triskel, a Celtic symbol of life, death and re-birth. His belt is made up of Holly and Oak leaves to honor his work through the dark and light halves of the year and the buckle is a seven pointed star that shows his connection to the Fey and the 'wee folk' of the other world.

He stands approximately 12" tall by 6" wide and is the perfect complement to our Cerridwen Statue.

We are pleased to announce we are now shipping orders for Cernunnos. Each individually numbered and signed statue is hand-cast from the original sculpture by the artist, Joe Laudati, himself.

Words cannot begin to describe this beautiful statue... Imagined by Lisa (who has honored Cerridwen as her mother goddess for many years), and sculpted by the insanely talented Joe Laudati, this figurine may well bring tears to your eyes.

Individually hand cast by the artist who created this sculpture, each one of these figurines is lovingly finished with painstaking attention detail by Joe Laudati himself.

She stands approximately 11" tall by 5" wide and her hands are portrayed in a manifesting pose, ideally suited to place a candle, crystal or small cauldron beneath them, in order to lend her energies to your magickal working.

We are pleased to announce we are now taking advance orders for Cerridwen. These will be accepted on a first come, first served basis. In other words, orders will be filled in the order they are placed.

Joe tells us that the mold will be ready in about a week or so and then he can begin to individually hand-cast these beautiful statues of our mother goddess, Cerridwen.

Which means she could be with you in just a couple of weeks, perhaps in time for Rites of Spring! )O(

Like we said orders will be filled in the order they are placed. Brightest Blessings.
